“People Are Gonna Sit at Home and Play Bingo?!” | Dragons’ Den 

Most of these investments don't go through

😂😂😂

Did he really say that? I didnt hear it. Are you doing what this channel does, making up fake quotes?

@@Likexner He said it but I think it was sarcasm.

*I'm oat

What about 2021, the year when we decided to get off our arses and raze the capitol of America?

To be fair, I don't know anyone sad enough to do that, lockdown or not - not anyone who'd Amit to it, anyway.

@@TheGalacticEmperorOfLabels old people

if only we could have

@@TheGalacticEmperorOfLabelsI have played Bingo, Jenga, Pocker and a couple of other card games during lock down. Obviously I couldn't play them alone so that is how we passing our lock down, with all alcohol sales prohibited. Greatings from South Africa 🇿🇦

Theo the foetus

Hahaha

The stock market must have been down at the time

😂😂😂good one!!!!

Yeah that was pretty corny. For a minute there I thought he was gonna go make them go to the corner until they said 40% 😆

Really? I think she's annoying

@@danielnichols5632 nah

I heard that while reading it.

@@samsherrington7423 ... and pictured excited body language.

"You just say Bingo"

Is that Django?

He looked like he was going to eat them!

lol genius catch

🤣🤣🦸

You just made my day😂😂😂

How about you assume responsibility for your actions? Or how about you control yourself. You seem like the type of person that blames guns for gun violence. About people take responsibility for there actions for once. That would be crazy right? If someone drove there car into a crowd why aren’t we banning said brand of car?

@@jpmotovlogs996 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

gotta take money from the fools y'know

I bet you blame McDonald’s for obesity too ?

Idiots and their money soon part ways.

10 years too early

🤣🤣🤣

she must be an addict

I'm shocked. His wife is gambling with their children's inheritance.

Lmao.

Thanks Shai.

The deal went through but Theo most likely lost his 200k

So Peter was spot on.

How did you get this information

It's strange. Online gambling is quite profitable if it's marketed right, which after all actually was their day job. In theory this should've been a good investment, so something unfortunate certainly happened.

Well people in the States love Bingo in general. My great aunt would be offended

@@Farquad76.547 he ain't dead is he ? 💀

Mac Black of course not he's not that old

I think they all have good moments. I've noticed that if the camera catches Duncan yawning, especially during the initial pitch, he is very curt when he tells them he's out.

Duncan is one of the least generous dragons, often very quick to declare himself out. Rarely giving valuable insights and tips. Definitely worse than Peter, Deborah, Theo or Richard Farleigh.

@@rayhoodoo847 Cope.

So the deal actually went through? That's unusual. It's only cos he fancied her anyway.

@@criss2842 agreed, I was surprised the deal actually went through. Perhaps he spent too much time trying to find finda path to her panties rather than a path to market and that’s why it dissolved

Yikes

Maybe he didn’t have enough office space to deal with it...

That's not good for his children's inheritance!

Mango tapioca? Where did you get it from ? Thanks

Waiting for my lunch to be delivered it's late 😩

pek and chips cant fault it

@@davidfigg I ordered it from a place called Miss Chu

😭😤

Even back in 2008 when I worked in the online casino business, Bingo was a massive part of the online space.

covid has enter the chat

they're investors, not entrepreneurs

I think you might have misunderstood the point.

It's very different to have several mature, thriving business which has lots of employees to run it day in, day out, and for you to pop in when needed, than 2 start ups/ early businesses that need all or most of your attention on a daily basis with no employees.

@Lokii 223 I think that's the point, now they're investors, not entrepreneurs, they didn't make it to the top with 10 businesses, now they're in a position to invest in multiple businesses and make a portfolio

As they've said on other episodes you need to focus until their properly established Nobody can give their all to 2 full time jobs You try doing 120 hours a week Not much time for sleep

His wife is neither insane or alone, millions play online bingo and poker.

@@MichaelWilliams-mo1vv I'm sorry to hear that 😅

@@MichaelWilliams-mo1vv Company dissolved in 2011 so...

Yeah he should have just invested HIS 200k because it's annoying to watch in RU-vid -_-

@@suryavegeta12 No you illiterate clown. He didn't make an offer which is the manner in which a deal can be struck or a counter offer can be made. He expected them to counter offer when he had made no initial offer. It isn't how it's supposed to be done and its annoying.

I agree. That was so unnecessary. Just make a counter offer and be done with it.

It's not an investor's job to run a company. Deborah's point is more valid that they are just not going to bother with the other company if they have 2 and are running them both with one at 100% ownership and the other at 60-55%. Peter probably very slightly runs his businesses - he definitely has CEOs that do it and he will manage it overall.

@@foxernator The way I see it, these dragons don't want others to succeed the way they did. These guys think running more than one company is clearly the way to go. If the dragons were so smart to do it when they started, why cant these two?

And is Peter the one asking for investment here? No, he's not.

@@deansusec8745 because if you are investing in someone you don't want them ignoring it to do their own thing, its a conflict of interest

They didn't start out as investors. They started as entrepreneurs who expanded into various fields.

Because businesses are never as profitable as people make out. If thier current business was making any proper money, they would not bother doing anything else, nor would they use it as leverage. But because they knew their normal business wasn't anything amazing, they happily give it away to try for something bigger.

@@Sam-yr8ls would you believe that it takes to hire just a couple of people with exceutive power to fire people/hire new ones to make failing department good again?

@@janchix6680 Business aint a math formula sometimes those methods just slow the death down and leave a bad taste in peoples mouths.

Why would the dragons risk 200k on a pair of random people to do as they think they can. Id want a lean on their business their house the dog cat kids and misses.

I know! 😱

Sorry you guys, but her super nasal voice just drives me up the wall.. 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺

It's his television persona

He's owns more than one casino lol. Not sure if they're going to survive covid though seeing as how they are closed for long periods.

Heja Sverige Heja!

Jag har inte vunnit än!

An investor doesn’t need to share their companies. Entrepreneur have a choice to share their full company or just their subsidiary. Most cases in Dragon’s Den, they wouldn’t want to just go for Subsidiaries because of the likely chance of failure. It’s better to invest in multiple companies incase the other fails. And yeah the Dragon’s don’t need Entrepreneurs. The Entrepreneurs needs the Dragons and because of that, the Dragon’s standing has more ground and standing than the one asking for money.

Hello fella! Watching from Athens!

Απολαμβανετε!

Hi Greece.

Big gamble on a business like that. I'm surprised he didn't organize a tire course aswell. But in reality he wants to see they see the value in him. Personally their lots of these crappy little business that are a waste of time on the show and feel their a lot more valuable than they ever will be.

When you are the one holding the money you can use whatever negotiation strategies you want

Who ever has the money is the King.

He said something to the effect of wanting to bend her over and smack her bum.

There are loads of people playing bingo, there are extremely few playing for real money unlike with poker and casino games. He was right on the mark

@@Figgy20000 whilst I agree, that alot of Bingo websites, look like people are playing with and for token amount of money, that is not the point. If you own casinos, you should be on top of where ANY gambling takes place, it will help you with future trends, and adapt your business. Looking into this aired October 2007, so maybe filmed 2006. Certainly 2006 would have been part of the boom, as TV advertising was allowed in 2005. Duncan being so dismissive of that, IMO reflects poorly on him.

@@ianlister7333 www.companiesintheuk.co.uk/ltd/gaming-alerts They dissolved the company in 2011. Theo paid 200k for 30% of nothing! The deal went through and he lost all his money. Duncan was right - they didn't even come close to being successful. This does not reflect poorly on him, quite the opposite.

@@aylesburyfutsalleague1765 yes I agree this firm, was not a goer, BUT the firm was not a pioneer in online Bingo, which is what Duncan was saying wasnt a thing.

@Threehundredpages Pages David Lister was my Dad.

Firstly no he didn't, but if you are talking about 4:55 then it just means that it is growing without external influence, no cash injection etc

She says the bloke next to her does the work on the other company and she does the work on Gaming Alert.

touker is funny and has real class.

As soon as Theo and Duncan left it got boring.

At least the memes went up after this group broke up.

I basically agree with you, but I reckon the line up with Nick Jenkins and Sarah Willingham was pretty good too

The show wouldn't have lasted for nearly as long as it has, and is still going, if the show went downhill after this lineup....
